My Boyfriend and I were self employed last summer. Do we file seperate schedule C's or together?

If my boyfriend and I was self employed last year do we file separate schedule C's or together? We do have receipts for expenses, job's completed and equipment used.

If it was a Joint business, it sounds like you had a Partnership, which is a completely separate tax return.  If that is the case, you should go to a tax professional for the Partnership return.

You file a partnership return, form 1065.  The partnership does not pay any tax. Instead the partnership issues a schedule K-1 to each of the partners, reporting his/her share of the profit or loss. You then each report your share on your individual tax return.

If you are not legally married then you do not file a joint tax return.  You each file your own tax return with your own schedule C, etc.
